They are similar because;
1: both languages are writing systems that code language. (that is basically anything said in language can be written with them and could be read very loud or out loud)
2: well some of the hieroglyphs refer to the meanings but some of them sound like letters
3: And therefore some of our alphabet comes from the hieroglyphs ~ but the Greek script.
Let me know if it's correct!
I think it is false because Denali is the tallest mountain in the U.S.
I believe it is A for question 1 and C for question 2! Hope this helps:)
